    Image Capture no longer auto activates

    Sorry should have made it plain. OSX 10.2.1 and therefore Image Capture Version 2.0 It was working prevously though not as far as I can tell since 10.2. Tried the "repair permissions" as a quick fix. No Joy!

    Image Capture no longer auto activates

    When I plug my Nikon camera into Firewire. If I manually start the application I am above to download the files . It used to just "pop" up whenever I plugged my camera in. Now it does not. Any offers? Dean

    Sound sticks 2

    As when selecting any speakers try to hear them before you for out the cash. One other thing to consider the HK Soundsticks (which I own and like) have a USB and can therefore only be driven by a computer. Some of the other speakers can use the headphone socket which means they can be...

    Minimum Hardware requirements state 128Mb memory. You do need more. (TIP get as much as possible 128 Mb v slow!)

    CD Drive can't read CD's but DVD's....

    When mine stops working the item vendor information changes from MATSHITA to M@T@IO@ or similar. Yours at least appears ok in this regard. It might just be worthwhile getting an Apple authorised center to look at it. (Yes I do know what a pain in the a that can be!)

    CD Drive can't read CD's but DVD's....

    This is quite interesting as I am having the reverse problem with a Matsushita drive reads CD's but not DVD's. Differences are that this is a TiBook 400 Mhz slotloader SR-8187 rev. HA16 model and the problem is intermittent. In my case, I suspect strongly the drive is broken and will need...

    Epson Photo 895 and OSX poor colours

    Colorsync is supposed to help and indeed I have seen it work to great effect with workflows I used to use whilst employed in Digital printing. Hence my strong belief it is the fault of the drivers. I was considering buying the Canon S900 or S9000 but I do not know whether I would be better...

    Epson Photo 895 and OSX poor colours

    I have an Epson Photo 895 printer (UK nomenclature) which is essentially the same as the Photo 890 but with the addition of a PC Card Slot to allow Computerless printing of digital pics. Printing from Classic the output is perfect and largely similar to the displayed photo on screen. When...

    what the heck is this??!!

    OK so I know the discussion is about the Pro speakers but why not try the (more expensive) Harmon Kardon Sounds sticks? They do look and sound great.

    Recomendation for a PDA that works with OSX?

    I agree with the suggestion above. The new M130 from Palm may be worth a look. I have the M505 and I like the slim form factor. It also works well with Palm Desktop X and my preference Now Contact/Up to Date. Dean

    Windows media

    As I had said earlier I had to install it on a clean install of OSX, install WMP to that and then copy the components to my "regular" OSX installation. It works fine but it does seem to be a lot of effort to go to simply so I can listen to my local radio station in Fairfield, CT USA!! (I...

    Just to clarify, this folder is NOT the problem as it already is on my machine but WMP still will not install.

    Windows media

    Well they say "misery loves company" though I take little solace from hearing, as I suspected, others have the same problem. It is not unique to 10.1.4 as I have had the problem since 10.1 and Office 10 became available.

    Windows media

    I am of the belief that those of us who had very early OSX installed may have had something left "behind" to cause this weirdness. I have something equally irritating occuring. Whilst I am able to connect using the chooser in Classic to my server's shared volumes it will not connect using...

    Epson Photo Printer 895

    My Epson Photo Printer 895 prints beautifully and accurately from Classic but the same pic printed from OSX are truly awful way too red. I had assumed that it may have been Colorsync setting but all settings seem to produce poor results. Any suggestions?

    Were you an "early adopter" of OSX? Did you have the beta? The reason I ask is because I had the self same problem. I know that you already have the Internet Plug-ins folder in existance as I did. MS support were unable to remedy this for me either. The way I was forced to solve the problem...
